The urinary calcium-creatinine ratio as a measure of urinary calcium excretion.
Urine specimens were collected from 26 normal subjects, 10 patients with proven primary hyperparathyroidism, and eight patients with hypercalcaemia due to other causes. After overnight urine concentration, an oral water load was given to induce a diuresis and provide urine specimens with a relatively wide range of creatinine concentration for each subject. In normal subjects the urinary calcium...
متن کاملEffect of Phototherapy Treatment on Urinary Calcium Excretion in Neonates with Jaundice in Zahedan, Iran
Background: One of the recognized symptoms of phototherapy in neonates is hypocalcemia and hypercalciuria, and its etiology has not been identified yet. The present study investigated the recurrence of hypercalciuria among neonates with jaundice treated with phototherapy.

متن کاملStudy on the effect of high calcium intake on serum protein bound iodine and urinary excretion of iodine
Iodine deficiency remains a major health problem in the world, including some parts of Iran. It has been recognized that there is usually a close and inverse relationship between iodine in the soil and water and presence of endemic goiter. Calcium has been suggested as one of goitrogens, though the definite role, extent and mechanism particularly in human have not been studied. Serum protein-...
متن کاملUrinary calcium creatinine ratio and hypercalciuria.
Random urine samples of 352 children in the age group of 5-12 yrs were studied for urinary calcium-creatinine ratio (Uca/Ucr mg/mg). None had any predisposing factor for secondary hypercalciuria. Calcium and creatinine both were estimated by colorimetric method. We observed that Uca/Ucr in the general pediatric population was skewed, the pattern was similar to that described in western children...

been developed. 24-hr urine samples were concentrated with dry Sephadex G-25 and bioassayed in the young thyroparathyrocauterized mouse by the measurement of whole blood calcium. Recovery of biological activity and radioiodinated beef parathyroid hormone was over 80%. Normal subjects usually excreted less than 30 U (USP) of activity per day while 18 patients with proven primary hyperparathyroid...
